Muhammad, the prophet, is said to have had more than 100 wives and the way some Muslims try to justify it is that they argue it was to make better relationship with the other tribes and expand Islam. It gets even more controversial when it comes to Aisha who was only 9 years old when Muhammad married her.<br /><br />Today in Islamic states, men are allowed to be married with up to four wives at the same time. It should not be mistaken with polygamy since women do not have the same rights...Mojtaba Safarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08544688905468900286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2947531464731932463.post-7010983795385878002010-10-26T21:38:46.698-04:002010-10-26T21:38:46.698-04:00I have that book, but have yet to read it.

It just reinforces the whole rape is just a good time or whatever bullshit you want to add to that. <br /><br />I went to see a lecture yesterday on the politics of rape...really interesting. <br /><br />The woman who gave the lecture goes by the moniker Jane Doe. She wrote a book "The Story of Jane Doe", which I haven't read, but will do so as soon as I can afford to buy a copy. I'm recommending it just based on hearing her talk.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
